Comment 1 Milan Crha 2011-06-13 09:44:06 UTC
Thanks for a bug report. There still left some issue after a migration from mbox to maildir format in the local mail storage, as is reported in an upstream bug [1]. A workaround for this issue is to reselect a Sent and Draft folder in the Edit->Preferences->Mail Preferences-><account>->Edit, tab Defaults.
